If you want a fairly healthy lunch option in Soho and want to branch out from Taim and Sweetgreen, you could try Dez. It’s a fast casual Middle Eastern spot from the people behind By Chloe with a bright, desert-themed space and some nice sidewalk seating out front. They serve mezes like beet hummus as well as pitas and bowls, like the one with chicken and saffron rice. Everything here is pretty good, especially the starters and breads, but the prices feel pretty high given the small portions.

Taim Falafel

A falafel sandwich at Taim is the best thing you can get in NYC for less than $10 and also theoretically eat daily without disastrous consequences.

Sweetgreen Tribeca image

Sweetgreen sweeps the nation, one cool person and Curry Cauliflower Quinoa salad at a time. Here's our review of NY location number two.

Egg Shop image

People are waiting an hour for egg sandwiches at Nolita’s Egg Shop. Is it worth it? Time to investigate.

Seamore's image

The original Seamore's is in Nolita, and the Chelsea location is pretty much the same. Stop by for some casual seafood, maybe in your gym clothes.
